But the original post was about a computerized machine, and so I don't think this is what she means by ghost stitching. It sounds more like Macybaby's description of the machine moving its way through a design without actually stitching it.
Yeah, that's why I was asking what kind of machine the OP was using. I think we need more information. Hoping the OP comes back to respond and clarify....
